I also loved Anne - and totally sympathized with that "Anne with an E" thing. I felt as if I had lived through many of the scenes myself. Have any of you seen the movie with Megan Follows? Usually movies ruin books for me, but this one was PERFECT. It was filmed about 20 years ago. Loved this blog post!!Anne (with an E, of course!)

When I read your post I had to go to my book shelf and pull my tattered copy out. I also remember the picture of myself holding that book. It was as if when I was only ten I wanted to record that moment so I could return to it years later.<br /><br />Thanks, Nancleemckenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456109243453726483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233403736343236952.post-6473197642108402112010-02-10T08:48:11.638-05:002010-02-10T08:48:11.638-05:00Mel, I think you'll love it.

Did your daughter's teacher know it was your favorite book? Love the idea of dressing up "Anne style" and an Anne of Green Gables illustrated cookbook is brilliant.<br />Jen -- aka my kindred spirit :) Six times! Have you read it as an adult too? I stopped reading after chapter three. Not sure if I should continue reading or if I should keep it as a wonderful childhood memory.nanmarinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00774886321171665796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233403736343236952.post-18385542860701271632010-02-07T14:51:56.269-05:002010-02-07T14:51:56.269-05:00Anne is my favorite book of all time, my favorite ...Anne is my favorite book of all time, my favorite character of all time, my kindred spirit. I've read the first book at least six times, the others not as muh. But funnily enough, I remember skipping the first chapter the first time I ever read it. I just couldn't get into the nosiness of Rachel Lynde and I somehow knew I wasn't missing much ;)jpetroroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07652079710462059513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233403736343236952.post-16045717196557732922010-02-07T13:23:58.948-05:002010-02-07T13:23:58.948-05:00I've written about my first love, an antiquate...I've written about my first love, an antiquated primer called The Magic Boat, on my blog. It turned me into a reader.<br /><br />I think it's interesting how many of the "rules" the old books break. MCs don't show up right away, whole chapters are spent describing the landscape... Somehow the readers just kept falling in love with the books. <br /><br />My daughter in an Anne fan. She and her friend used to dress up in their approximation of "Anne style"--even to go to school. She had a little illustrated cookbook with recipes mentioned in the book.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10147284664183496856noreply@blogger.com
